Due Date:

This week we worked on the skills, knowledge and attitudes that are necessary for success in a variety of work roles and environments.

We also evaluated life/work information that would allow us to choose jobs that suit our temperment and experience.

Today, December 6th, we learned about the Employment Standards Act and what is required of employers when they hire students ages 16 and under. We also learned how to read the Hiring Demand Bulletin provided by the Government of New Brunswick website.

Later in the week, we will discuss the realities and requirements of various education, training, and work settings.

1. The early stages of dating abuse usually involve one partner gaining control over the other through excessive attention, jealousy, and guilt. Why is this stage often hard for a victim to recognize? How can it lead to more serious forms of abuse?

2. Do you think would be difficult to leave an unhealthy relationship? What are some reasons why someone might stay in an unhealthy relationship?

3. If you saw a friend being abused, or abusing someone else, would you get involved? If you wouldn't help, why not? If you would help, what would you do to help?
